Can't delete backup files

My current version is TI 10, but for this situation it is not running.

I want to delete a previous backup but I think the "explorer" mode of TI is getting in the way. I am able to view the detailed content of the backed-up files in Windows Explorer. I get this message when I try to delete them: "It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again." TI is not running at this time.

Nothing else is running that would have control of the backup files. Is there a "terminate-and-stay-resident" mode to TI?

that sounds similar to the problem with the media shell extension of
windows accessing for preview
did you really make sure all acronis stuff is terminated in the task-
manager?
TI install several sub-programs into autostart plus an auto-starting
service (look for timonitor* and acronis* or similar named .exe files
runing in the background.
It's safe to kill them off, as TI will start the necessary ones again upon
opening the program.

Activate Acronis, in the menu select Backup. Set your backup to the point where you need to name your new *tib backup file. At this point, existing backup files should be listed under the drive where backups are housed.

Click an old backup and at the top of the structure tree and to the left, you have a Red Xto delete.

If you clicked on the backup file so that you can see the contents, Explorer is the program using the file.

Instead of clicking on the backup first, Right-click on it and select Delete.
